Yes, they suck. I was told by the manager they were made by 6 different makers. So your chances of getting a good one are probably more like 1 in 6. I don't know if you have ADVANCED AUTO PARTS in you area. I'm in Indiana. You're in Ohio so I don't know. But they have ones that are made by Recon.

My dad got a rebuilt 302 from Napa for our 83 Lincoln and he was told everything for napa was made by AC Delco. This seems to be true since there were some AC Delco parts the build sheet.
